Email account compromised

SOLUTIONThis issue is normally not related to something installed/present on your computer however, it may mean that your email account has been compromised. The best way to counter-act this is to change all passwords to your hosted solutions such as email and commercial websites. If the problem continues, you may want to contact the company that hosts your email account or delete the account entirely. However, if you would like some extra reassurance on your computer security, please feel free to run a VIPRE full scan or run VIPRE Rescue if you don't have VIPRE installed yet.

CAUSE

The problem does not exist on your local computer. It is likely that the password to the email account became known to an individual or group that then uses it to generate spam messages.
